A half liter bottle? That is the volume of the container, but I don't know any geometric equations for a "bottle", only objects that approximate a bottle, like a cylinder, but you cannot calculate the "L" of the bottle without the radius or diameter of the object.

0.5 = pi*r^2*L

Not sure there is enough available data to calculate the fundamental frequency.
 

Related to Estimate the fundamental frequency of resonance sound induced by blowi

1. What is the fundamental frequency of resonance sound?

The fundamental frequency of resonance sound is the lowest frequency at which a system vibrates when excited by an external force. In other words, it is the natural frequency at which an object or system tends to vibrate.

2. How is the fundamental frequency of resonance sound estimated?

The fundamental frequency of resonance sound can be estimated by measuring the length, mass, and stiffness of the object or system. These three factors determine the natural frequency of vibration, and can be used to calculate the fundamental frequency using mathematical equations.

3. Can the fundamental frequency of resonance sound be changed?

Yes, the fundamental frequency of resonance sound can be changed by altering the length, mass, or stiffness of the object or system. For example, changing the length of a string on a musical instrument will change its fundamental frequency.

4. What is the significance of the fundamental frequency of resonance sound?

The fundamental frequency of resonance sound is important in understanding the behavior of objects and systems when they are subjected to external forces. It can also be used to predict how an object or system will respond to different frequencies of vibration.

5. How is the fundamental frequency of resonance sound related to sound production?

The fundamental frequency of resonance sound is directly related to the pitch of a sound. A higher fundamental frequency will produce a higher pitched sound, while a lower fundamental frequency will produce a lower pitched sound. This is why changing the length or tension of a string on a musical instrument can change the pitch of the sound it produces.
